[Verse I:]Show me how to be more like youShow me how to be stronger in a world so cruelShow me how to be more faithful in what I don't knowAnd how to trust and how to lean on you LordYou said[B-Setion:]If I be lifted up from the earthI will draw all men unto me

[Chorus:]Can I get closer to YouCan I get closer and personal tooI need to know how to live more in the likeness of YouCan I get closer - Closer to you Lord

[Verse 2:]Show me how to think more like I shouldShow me how to choose between what's bad and goodShow me how to be more prayerful and availableSo I can hear you when you talk to me Lord

[Vamp:]Draw me nearer to you JesusYou're my sword and shieldDraw me closer than a brotherYou are all I need
